Product Overview
Keeping an AXIS Q1656-LE or Q1656-BLE Box Camera operational in harsh outdoor environments often comes down to the condition of its protective housing components. This genuine Axis spare part supplies the complete top cover weather shield along with the entire wiper mechanism for those cameras, covering the intrusion switch, wiper blade, and wiper motor as a single assembly. Rather than sourcing individual components or retiring a functional camera body due to weather shield wear, this replacement assembly restores the camera to its original specification. It is suited to maintenance programmes on sites where the Q1656-LE is deployed in exposed outdoor positions subject to rain, dust, or debris accumulation on the lens window. At 3,190 grams and 210 x 560 x 220 mm, the assembly is sized to the Q1656-LE housing. NDAA compliant and covered by a 3-year limited warranty, this part is available through Security Wholesalers for Australian installers and service technicians.
Key Capabilities
Complete Wiper Mechanism Assembly
The replacement includes the full wiper system: motor, wiper blade, and intrusion switch. Replacing the entire mechanism at once reduces service time on-site and avoids the risk of incomplete repairs that can compromise lens window clarity in wet conditions.
Genuine Axis Spare Part
Manufactured in Poland and supplied under Axis part number 02193-001, this component is built to the same specification as the original factory-fitted assembly. Using genuine parts maintains compatibility and supports the camera’s existing warranty and certification status.
Confirmed Camera Compatibility
Designed specifically for the AXIS Q1656-LE and AXIS Q1656-BLE Box Cameras. Purchasing a part confirmed for these models avoids fitting issues that can arise when using third-party or cross-model components on precision housing assemblies.
NDAA Compliant
This spare part carries NDAA compliance, which is relevant for government, defence, or publicly funded installations where all components within a camera assembly must meet NDAA requirements. Replacement with a compliant part preserves the overall system’s compliance standing.
Best For
- Scheduled Preventive Maintenance: Service technicians running planned maintenance programmes on AXIS Q1656-LE deployments can stock this assembly to replace wiper components before failure causes unplanned downtime.
- Reactive Repair After Weather Damage: Sites where the wiper motor or blade has failed due to exposure, impact, or wear can restore full camera function without replacing the entire camera unit.
- NDAA-Governed Projects: Government or defence sites requiring NDAA-compliant components throughout a camera assembly can replace worn housing parts while maintaining that compliance status.
Why Choose the Axis 02193-001
The AXIS Q1656-LE is a high-specification outdoor box camera, and the wiper mechanism is one of its most mechanically active components. When that mechanism wears or fails, replacing only the top cover weather shield assembly with this genuine Axis part – rather than the full camera – represents a straightforward and cost-effective path back to full operation. The 02193-001 supplies the complete assembly including motor, blade, and intrusion switch, so the job is not split across multiple part orders. At 3,190 grams and confirmed dimensions of 210 x 560 x 220 mm, it is sized precisely for the Q1656-LE and Q1656-BLE housings. The 3-year limited warranty on the part provides additional assurance for service contracts. Available through Security Wholesalers, this assembly is a practical choice for Australian integrators maintaining Q1656-LE cameras in outdoor environments.
Buyer Decision Tips
Confirm Camera Model Before Ordering: This assembly is confirmed for the AXIS Q1656-LE and AXIS Q1656-BLE Box Cameras only. If the site uses a different Axis box camera model, verify compatibility with Axis technical support before purchasing, as housing dimensions and wiper mechanisms differ across camera families.

Ideal Use Cases
Outdoor Camera Maintenance Programmes
Sites running AXIS Q1656-LE cameras in exposed outdoor positions can include this assembly as a scheduled replacement item, restoring wiper function and weather seal integrity before degradation affects image quality or housing protection.
Post-Impact Housing Repair
Where the top cover or wiper mechanism has been physically damaged, the 02193-001 provides a direct replacement assembly rather than requiring a full camera swap, keeping repair costs and downtime lower.
Government and Defence Sites
NDAA-compliant replacement parts are required at many government and infrastructure sites. This spare part maintains the Q1656-LE’s compliance standing when swapping worn or damaged components.
Integrator Spare Parts Inventory
Security integrators managing multiple Q1656-LE installations across different sites can hold the 02193-001 in stock to respond quickly to wiper failure calls without waiting on lead times during critical incidents.
Choosing the Right Model
- Choose this part if: You are servicing an AXIS Q1656-LE or Q1656-BLE Box Camera with a faulty, worn, or damaged wiper mechanism or top cover weather shield, and want a genuine Axis replacement assembly that includes the motor, blade, and intrusion switch together.
- Choose a different part if: The camera requiring service is a different Axis box camera model, as housing assemblies and wiper mechanisms are not interchangeable across Axis camera families. Verify the exact model on the camera label before ordering.
FAQs
- What does the 02193-001 include?
The assembly includes the complete top cover weather shield, wiper motor, wiper blade, and intrusion switch as a single replacement unit for the AXIS Q1656-LE and Q1656-BLE Box Cameras. All components are supplied together, so there is no need to source the wiper motor or intrusion switch separately. - Which cameras is this spare part confirmed compatible with?
The 02193-001 is confirmed compatible with the AXIS Q1656-LE Box Camera and the AXIS Q1656-BLE Box Camera. It is not confirmed for other Axis box camera models. If you are unsure which camera is installed on-site, check the model label on the camera body before ordering. - Why does the wiper mechanism matter for outdoor camera performance?
The Q1656-LE is designed for outdoor use where rain, dust, and debris can collect on the lens window. A functioning wiper keeps the front glass clear and maintains image quality during adverse weather. A seized or broken wiper motor left unrepaired can also allow moisture to enter around worn seals over time. - Is this spare part NDAA compliant?
Yes. The 02193-001 is confirmed NDAA compliant. For installations at government, defence, or publicly funded sites where NDAA compliance must be maintained across all system components, this part allows housing replacement without compromising the camera’s overall compliance status. - What warranty applies to this spare part?
Axis provides a 3-year limited warranty on the 02193-001. This is consistent with Axis’s standard accessory and spare part warranty terms. For warranty claims or technical support, contact Axis directly or speak with the team at Security Wholesalers for guidance on the process.
